According to U.Today, Shiba Inu's second-layer solution Shibarium recently suffered an outage, Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya posted a post on the X social media network. Dhairya explained that the outage was caused by network problems between validators. Currently, the network has returned to normal operation. However, as Dhairya pointed out, Shibariumscam, a popular website that tracks the health of the Shibarium network, and external remote procedure calls (RPCs) may still be down while the team is dealing with external issues. External teams working for Shibarium at the infrastructure level are encouraged to contact Dhairya about recent technical issues. Shibarium has often encountered technical difficulties since its launch in August last year.

According to data provided by Shibariumscam, the network has been quite successful. The Shibarium blockchain has now exceeded 400 million transactions, while the number of wallets is close to 1.7 million. On the 15th, it recorded nearly a million transactions. However, on April 21, the number of transactions dropped to only 10,040.

Popular meme coin Shiba Inu has recently experienced double-digit price increases, along with other joke cryptocurrencies such as Solana-based Bonk (BONK). According to data from CoinGecko, the price of Shiba Inu (SHIB) has fallen by 1.8% over the past 24 hours. It is unclear whether this slight drop is related to profit-taking or recent technical issues with Shibarium.
